Inspired by developmentalism ideas, the Brazilian government implemented several public policies during the second half of the last century intending to promote economic growth, fueled mainly by industrialization. After the 1964 coup d’état, to integrate the Amazon region to the rest of the country, the government adopted several public policies such as road construction and generous tax incentives. This region, which was seen as an empty space by the State, began to attract thousands of migrants in search of plots of land. Thus, the goal of this dissertation is to assess the role of the State in the municipality of Castanhal within a political scenario driven by the ideology of development. The city of Castanhal, located in the state of Pará, is analyzed considering three different periods: its creation associated with the construction of the railway station of Bragança-PA, the revitalization of its downtown, and the creation of the Cupiúba rural settlement. This study was carried out based on bibliographic research and literature review about the history of Castanhal and its surrounding area (Bragantina region), as well as on socio-demographic, economic, and agricultural indicators collected from the following databases: SIDRA and Atlas Brasil. The results indicate that Castanhal stands out positively among the other municipalities that were crossed by the Bragança railway due to a set of investments the city received during the analyzed periods. On the other hand, concerning the social reproduction of farmers in rural settlements, there are still many challenges that need to be overcome. The State’s neglect, to which they are subjected, and the creation of the Cupiúba settlement as a palliative measure in response to their land occupation reveal how familiar farming is devalued by public authorities.

Entre o cinema e a locomotiva: os documentários de Edivaldo Moura como escrituras fílmicas de um passado castanhalense (1940-1995)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-02-26) OLIVEIRA, Matheus de Sousa; PETIT, Pere; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8376409779394321; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8970-3073
This research aims to analyze the process of filmic writing of part of the urban daily life of the 20th century (1940-1995) in the city of Castanhal (Pará) through two documentaries produced by the paraense filmmaker Edivaldo Moura, which are O Cinema de Seu Duca (2016), that addresses the multicultural trajectory of Cine Argus during its nearly six decades of operation in the city; and A Última Maria (2021), that focuses on some of the structural elements of the Bragança railway (EFB) in the daily life of the inhabitants of Castanhal, safeguarding the Castanhal locomotive and the railway station as protagonists. Both films are structured in similar ways by inviting residents of the city to share their past personal experiences with the main elements that the films envision – the Cine Argus and the Castanhal Locomotive. Film analysis (internal reading) was utilized in conjunction with documents sources to assert the films not as mirrors that represent a past already given by a passive social externality, but rather as producers of a historical movement proper to the Castanhal period addressed and, mainly, to its present producer. As a result, the films were understood as creators of a temporal intelligibility that anchors the present-past by formulating their own specific writings of part of the urban transformation of Castanhal, having the cinema and the locomotive, along with the social experiences developed in these spaces, as supplanted symbols – and at the same time resistant – of the policy of urban-commercial remodeling of Castanhal initiated vigorously from the second half of the 20th century in the city.
